Vinzenz Kreuzer (1809–1888)

Vinzenz Kreuzer was an Austrian academic draftsman as well as landscape and vedute painter.

Few details are known about Vinzenz Kreuzer’s life. He was born in Graz in 1809 as the son of a minor civil servant named Peter. Like his brother Conrad, he studied at the state drawing academy in the Stubenberg Palace under Josef August Stark (1782–1838) and tried in vain to make the leap to the Vienna Academy. As a testimony from the Imperial and Royal Court Controller and official adjunct Leopold Latour, Edler von Thurnberg, shows that Vinzenz was involved in five cityscapes that Conrad made for Marie-Louise of Austria in order to increase the chances of getting a place at university.

Vinzenz Kreuzer was married twice. In 1843 he married Anna Kronabetter, who died the following year. Their son Robert († 1877) worked as a railway conductor and was married to Maria (née Haderer; † 1884). He died in Wilten near Innsbruck. In 1852, Vinzenz Kreuzer married Amalie Kronabetter. They had two sons Friedrich and Alois, the latter is said to have been a lawyer. All three children probably received drawing and painting lessons from their father.

Vinzenz Kreuzer died in 1888 of a combination of old age, pulmonary edema and bronchitis.
